It'd be nice if the emails had proper bug and rev links
It looks like the mails are plaintext, so this would require either converting the mails to HTML (eek! sounds like a big upstream issue) or interpolating full links into the mails, eg converting: "Did you see Brion's notes on the tracking bug? (bug 19986) We should probably put these there if they're not the same." -> to -> "Did you see Brion's notes on the tracking bug? (bug 19986 <https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=19986>) We should probably put these there if they're not the same." and likewise for the revs. This ought to work reasonably well, at least if done before line wrapping gets applied. :) Not sure offhand how easy it is to slide that into an extension for Bugzilla or if it'll be a hacky patch.
That would be quite nice. I keep looking at emails on my phone, and to click on other bug links, or revisions, I've got to go to the bugzilla page, and then on from there. HTML might have some benefit, but literally as you're suggesting there, would be mucho useful :) One would hope, we can reuse the linking code used in bug comments... :)
Bugmeister is the new Bugzilla maintainer and default assignee.
(In reply to comment #1) > either converting the mails to HTML (eek! sounds like a big upstream issue) Fixed in 4.2 according to https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=65477
Reset assignee per bug 37789
We have upgraded to Bugzilla 4.2 which provides HTML email by defaults and thus got proper links.
